There has also been zero reason to push NATO closer to Russia, but that hasn't stopped NATO from doing it.
Then Putin should have demanded a meeting with NATO not invade Ukraine and kill a bunch of innocent people who don’t even know what NATO is.
“There has also been zero reason to push NATO closer to Russia, but that hasn’t stopped NATO from doing it.”
Then why didn’t Russia invade Poland? It is a former Soviet satellite state and borders Russia at Kaliningrad. Why didn’t Russia invade Lithuania? It is also a former Soviet satellite state that borders Russia at Kaliningrad. Why didn’t Russia invade Latvia or Estonia? Both are former Soviet Satellite states that border Russia. MATO has nothing to do with Putin’s invasion, nor does his ridiculous comment that he wanted to “de-Nazify Ukraine.” This, from perhaps the biggest fascist on the planet? Yes, Putin is a fascist, not a communist.
